Hot dogs

The dogs are really slow in this incredibly warm weather. They play around a bit in the morning, but soon they realise that it's way too hot. Instead they try to find the coolest places in the garden and on the back porch. Lisa found a spot among the plants by the fence. I guess she found the soil a bit less warm than any other place.
7 months old Pluto is the one that tries to keep things happening even during the hottest hours, but today he gave up when the temperature reached 30 degrees Celsius.
I have arranged so that they always can find some shade. I placed one of the table fans on the floor of the back porch and soon all three dogs were there. That turned out to be the best solution!
And they have fresh water with ice cubes all day.
No walks during daytime. Instead they get a longer walk in the late evening. (Only problem then is for me - the mosquitos...)

They say it will be even hotter tomorrow...
